Bio: Leanna Sain lives in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of western North Carolina with her husband, Randy, and two teenage sons, Tyler and Ethan, whom she home-schools. Free-lance portrait artist, co-owner of two local retail stores and part-time farmer, she got the idea for her first novel at a friend's house. There she saw the "gate to nowhere" and knew she had to turn it into a great story. Currently she's working on the sequel.
